Executors his wife and son Abraham. Witnessed Daniel Smith, Thomas Marshall, and Samuel Finch, page 10. Inventory taken Nov. 23, 1717.... and filed Nov. 26, 1717, page 11."

      3. FHL book 929.273 R871rg "Ancestry of Long Island and Greenwich 1667-1992," by Rundall, Austin, Brownhill, Parker (poorly punctuated), pp. 470-471:
      "Jacob Rundle 2, William Rundle 1, resided: Greenwich, Fairfield Co., Connecticut; born: ca 1701 Greenwich, Fairfield Co., CT; died: 1733, Greenwich, Fairfield Co., CT.; buried: probably at Greenwich; no stone found; parents: William Rundle Sr. / Abigail Tyler; married Apr. 01 or 04 or 05, 1729 (various sources) by Rev. Stephen Munson Greenwich to Rebeckah Knap/Knapp, born: 1707 probably Greenwich pg. 10 Knapp; buried: probably an unmarked, Greenwich, parents: Joshua Knapp / Abigail Butler; occupation: farmer; religion: 2nd Congregational Church. Children (Rundle)3:
      1. Rebecca, b. Mar. 28, 1729/30, m. John Reynolds 1759.
      2. Jacob, b. Aug. 02, 1731, m. Rachel Lobdell.
      It is possible Jacob 2 & Rebecca removed to New York (see Knapp). Jacob 3 & Rachel Lobdell were married in Westchester Co. NY. He removed to Cortlandt Manor, NY before their marriage, apparently. It is unknown whether her family had moved to Westchester Co. before their marriage.
